Yes supposed to be similar. Ideally you're supposed to put just a small, barely there smear over butter on toast. Too much it's bad. This is second hand because I've not had the...pleasure.

Yes, this is spot on. So many Aussies introduce unsuspecting tasters to napalm levels of Vegemite that it turns people off for life. It's like, "Hey champ, let me spread this cube of beef bouillon on your toast; you're gonna love it." Marmite has more of a yeasty flavor and, for the record, Promite beats them all hands down.

Yeah, use about as much as you would use salt on something. It's basically flavored salt.

Nah heap it on, and some coon cheese too cant beat it

I feel like I'm walking into a trap even though I'm fairly well traveled. What is "coon cheese?"

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm guessing you milk a raccoon and then process that lovely raccoon milk into cheese 🤷

That's just what a viking hippie would say.

Yep! We are indeed famous for our Bandit Brie and our Scavenger Sardo. Our Trash Tapas aren't half bad either.

It's a brand name of cheese that is ubiquitous in Australia. They recently rebranded to "Cheer" due to the racist connotations of their former name.
